Isn't it nice when you meet so many friendly people, especially when you find out you are both on city data?
Another Rhode Islander ?? She must have had an unmistakable accent.....like me! What area do you live in?? I might even know her...RI is PRETTY small! I'm in Cary, near High house and Davis.

I'll add to the stories! Soon after moving to Cary my husband and I joined the Prestonwood Country Club. I started attending the 6 am aerobics class and befriended one of the more sociable "regulars" and her husband. I saw her at least three days a week for more than a year. Then one Thanksgiving I was talking to my husbands Aunt in Lexington, SC and she asked me about my workout schedule. After sharing the details of my 6 am classes at Prestonwood, she said that she and her husband were very good former Navy friends with a couple who are Prestonwood members that she still stays in nearly weekly contact through emails. Turns out they are one and the same couple! For a full year, I was seeing her old Navy friends in person. What a pleasant surprise I brought back from SC that following Monday morning!
There are a ton of New Englanders here! If you're from a state adjoining RI, it could only be CT or MA. This is really ironic because I met two of my neighbors yesterday, one is from CT and one hails from MA ("Woostah" to be exact!). Why weren't my neighbors as friendly up north??

if she has a funny accent then it has to be MA unless it's Northern CT - otherwise they sound like they are from Brooklyn (no denying a NY accent).
BTW what's so funny about saying "I pahk my cah in Harvahd Yahd so I can go to Cheeahs for some beeahs and lobstah"? hahaha
A client of mine building in Brightleaf started talking to someone on here who is also building in Brightleaf with the same builder, and it just so happened that they have lots right next to each other and will be neighbors. How cool is that?
VERY cool
